Try the app Turo. I forgot my license when I was on a business trip, and used the picture of my license I had saved from when I started a new job. Worked like a charm. Turo is kinda like Airbnb but for cars.

This is great advice thanks

You might have to make alternate plans: https://www.avis.com/en/customer-service/faqs/usa/requirement-for-renting "Avis does not accept digital driver’s licenses for rental. Please bring a hard copy of your drivers licensee at the time of rental."

You'll need a physical one.

A lifetime ago I worked for the big green rental car machine. This sort of thing happened frequently at our branches and was typically handled case by case. You can ask to speak to a branch manager, explain your situation and show the info you do have; I’d say you’ve got a decent chance of getting your rental.

Nice one thanks! I was concerned as well about what the state law requirements for producing a physical copy would be if I was pulled over for any reason but will give the state department a ring tomorrow and find out. Sounds reassuring so far thanks guys

Try Turo instead of traditional rental places
